Who Do You Want More: Shokoti Or Illumina?

**Mr. Shokoti** · October 3, 2011, 05:57pm

If Shokoti isn't made for MOTUC, I'll be deeply sad. She's not only my favorite Filmation exclusive villain, she's one of my favorite MOTU villains overall as well. I'd buy an Illumina toy, but won't lose any sleep if she isn't made.

**Matthew K** · October 3, 2011, 07:54pm

Shokoti for sure. That's one of the better filmation episodes and I prefer her design. I do think she'd need a little bit of extra costume detail for the proper MOTUC figure, though.

**Danavas** · October 5, 2011, 12:43am

I had to go with Shokoti on this one. Illumina is cool and I definitely want her in MOTUC but Shokoti is as iconic as it gets when it comes to Filmation only characters.

None.

That's my way of thinking as well. I was impressed with the Shokoti character in the Filmation cartoon. She was badass. Illumina? I know next to nothing about her.

**Met-Hild** · October 5, 2011, 08:31am

I can't really answer. I definitely prefer Shokoti as a character, but when I think about them as potential action figures, Illumina has a head start: she's pretty much guaranteed to a good-looking figure by my standards. I'm honestly worried about Shokoti, because the 4H are likely to go for a very high Filmation accuracy, which would lead into a very low-detail, even boring figure. Just compare the statue with the screen caps, and you'll notice that not one detail of the costume is actually fully accurate. The spauldron/epaulette things are actually just blue flat squares in the Filmation design! Would she even get a golden headdress, or would it be dull orange? If you look at her, there is not much difference between her and Adora except for the colors and a new head.

I voted for Shokoti but I think it's not fair to compare these two.

Shokoti is well known to be highly demanded by the fans.

The end results of this poll is evident from the start.

PS : Where does this statue come from?
It's amazing! I want one!!

**Colton** · October 5, 2011, 10:26am

Definitely Shokoti!
Have no interest in Illumina at all ... sorry ...

**Rey Hiss** · October 5, 2011, 10:49am

If she is a Gar, I want Shokoti.

**AximusPrime** · October 5, 2011, 12:52pm

My vote went to Shokoti for the fact that her look is far more unique and her bio and backstory wasn't shoehorned in to the myhtos to make her more important by tieing her to Castle Grayskull or Man-At-Arms as his trainer. Oh, and no Gar connection please as she doesn't need it.

I'm to blame for the poll, but I got the idea from this debate that I had nothing to do with...

I've seen it around for awhile now. I once read that it's a custom from a Lady Death statue, but I'm not sure if that's true or not.

I like you.

**gbagok** · October 5, 2011, 04:40pm

Yeah, I can't vote. If I had two moms, this is like watching them fight. I don't like that.

**mjw41** · October 8, 2011, 12:12pm

Shokoti FTW!

**Lizard Man Fan** · October 8, 2011, 12:20pm

Shokoti. I'm not really a 200x fan, so I have to go with the FILMation choice here. Even that aside, Illumina looks a little too World of Warcraft for my taste.

**Jean** · October 8, 2011, 12:29pm

Hands down the vote goes to Shokoti considering she was featured in a cartoon. Plus MOTU needs more female villains...

**Megalodon** · October 8, 2011, 12:56pm

Sha Shimmy....

**synthalus** · October 8, 2011, 01:05pm

It's a tough choice because I like both a lot!
I have to go with Shokoti because she featured in a cartoon with a decent amount of airtime and "The House of Shokoti" 2-parter is one of my favorite.
I still really want an Illumina figure as well! They would even compliment each other!
Like Darkspecter said, Illumina (Light) and Shokoti (Dark); "They would be perfect enemies"

Shokoti for 2012, Illumina for 2020.

Lol! Funny, but true. I want SHOKOTI!!

**Count Marzo** · October 9, 2011, 05:38am

This poll shouldnt even be this close. If the Illuminuts didn't make it their mission.

**SAMURAI36** · October 13, 2011, 06:51am

Not sure why people are so opposed to putting more than just 2 simple options on these polls. I want both these characters equally.

This is what I'm trying to figure out...

**dedset13** · October 13, 2011, 12:34pm

As much as I'd like to see Illumina get released, this isn't even a close one.

Give me SHOKOTI!!

**Agent Gibbs** · October 15, 2011, 04:55pm

I love both but Shokoti beat Illumina,

and it best be almost identical to that sexy custom

**Crusader** · November 1, 2011, 06:40am

Illumina !!!

**Swanmarsh** · November 1, 2011, 09:38am

In principle I dislike these one or other polls (I want em all) but this is an easy win for Shokoti!

**carafa** · November 1, 2011, 10:02am

Shokoti soon ....Illumina later

**Killian** · November 1, 2011, 12:01pm

If I had to choose just one, I'd say Shokoti,

But I want both!
